commercials are a form of torture

I have seen that credit report or progressive insurance commercial so many times that its bordering on toture. I don't even watch that much television. Also, billboards got to go. They are fucking ugly and a distraction while driving

Have you ever been tortured, Mr. Marf?

For many years I lived in a city that banned billboards. It was nice.

Fuck TV

was thinking about billboards the other day too

My morning drive to work actually. was looking at the billboard and the giant metal post that holds them up. The posts, have you ever looked at those? Really ugly and feel so out of place next to the buildings around them.

my sister knows people that work at the martin agency which is responsible for the gieco ads and credit report ads. She has seen the gieco's "somebody's watching me" money. With the eye balls in person. She also met the dude in the free credit report ads, the singer. He can't speak a word of English in real life. He is french canadian. I agree tv sucks. for the most part. I like prison shows, history and dicovery channel though.

whenever a commmercial asks me a rhetorical question i always answer it aloud. people look at me funny like it's weird to have an open dialogue with the ads tryin'ta permeate their innate consumer defense systems. it's so amazing to watch americans get groomed into little mindless consumer never-question-anything zombies... it kind of gives me a purpose, antithetically speaking.
